Abstract:
Soil samples were obtained from herbicides contaminated site in kano and transferred to the laboratory under aseptic condition. The collected sample was diluted with a distilled water and sprayed on plate containing Nutrient agar. The plates were later incubated at suitable temperature. Colonies obtained from the plates were later sub cultured and examined. Result from morphology and biochemical test found the isolates to be Speudomonas spp. Since the bacteria live in herbicide contaminated site, we hypothesize it to be a potential dehalogenase producer.
